036 // Fantasy Fiction Friday: Author DK Drake Reads Chapter 23 of The Dragon Collector, a YA Fantasy Novel


Listen Later

It’s Fantasy Fiction Friday!  

And this isn’t just any Friday.  It’s the eve of Christmas Eve and the Friday before Christmas.  If you’re looking for a last minute gift of entertaining adventure for the avid reader in your life, I recommend the Dragon Stalker Bloodlines Saga.  You can easily gift the ebooks to any Kindle via Amazon, and you can be sure the books will be delivered in time for Christmas.

While you’re shopping, you can enjoy listening to chapter 23 of The Dragon Collector.  In this chapter, Javan gets to test out some different weapons in an effort to find out which one will work best for him on his quest to collect dragons.

When I was trying to figure out what weapon would be best suited for Javan, I thought about letting him be great with a bow and arrow or a backsword.  I even thought about letting the jolt blast be his weapon of choice since that is a weapon I totally made up for this story.  But none of those weapons felt like the right choice for Javan.  

He needed something unusual.  Something no one else would think of using.  Something that would play to his strengths and allow him to find a way to win the dragon collecting game because he was playing to his strengths.  

You’ll have to wait until next week’s episode to find out what that weapon is.  For now, enjoy his journey through the weapons that don’t play to his strengths.  

You are now entering the Land of Zandador...
